This important research includes a randomized controlled trial evaluating the potential of self-management support provided via telenursing to earthquake-affected hypertension patients to improve patients' treatment adherence and overall self-care management. This study will be carried out at Fırat University Hospital and will cover a wide range of effects on health outcomes in individuals receiving hypertension treatment. The sample selected from hypertension patients, which constitute the population of the research, was based on predetermined power analysis criteria. It has been determined that at least 51 hypertension patients should be included in each of the intervention and control groups, and accordingly, a total of 150 hypertension patients will be included in the study. . The results obtained within this framework may provide guidance in the development and implementation of Turkey's health policies, and may also shed light on strategies for the management of other similar health problems. On the other hand, strengthening the digital health infrastructure and effective management of chronic diseases, which are among the health-related targets of the Development Plan, further emphasize the importance of this research. The success of the self-management model supported by tele-nursing can serve as an example in the integration of digital health technologies into Turkey's healthcare system and be an important step towards achieving strategic goals in this field.
